'Dr Livingstone, I Presume?' Releases On Steam Tomorrow

In Dr Livingstone, I Presume? players are tasked with solving a series of puzzles to unravel the mystery of a lost friend - the titular Dr Livingstone.

A strange letter from a friend sowed seeds of uncertainty. Now you travel around the rooms of Livingstone's house to find out the truth - what happened here after you left? Use logical thinking, puzzle-solving skills, and perceptiveness to delve into the house and unravel the mystery.

During your long journey through Africa, you return to a friend who asks you for help in a mysterious letter. When you cross the threshold of his home, nothing greets you but a hollow silence. A series of closed doors awaits and you must use all your puzzle-solving skills to find the keys. Go deeper into the house and discover what happened to Dr Livingstone.

You will face more complex puzzles in every room. But giving up is not an option. Take on an increasingly challenging and bizarre house full of puzzles that will take your logical thinking to the limit. Remember that each room is unique and has its secrets. Intuitive interaction with the elements of the environment will allow you to fully immerse yourself in the game. Be thorough, be wise, explore.

Allow yourself to dive into a picturesque world where every texture is hand-painted from the first pixel. The items and patterns in the game carry the spirit of an African-British fusion with a pinch of travel and history. The whole adventure is complemented by music inspired by African culture.

Look around. Investigate carefully. There is a story enchanted in objects in many corners of the game, and if you search the house carefully, you will find notes and letters that complete this alternate story about the explorers of Africa. Will you have the opportunity to say famous words?


Your goal is not to run away from the house but to go deeper and deeper. Make your way through all the rooms and find the missing traveller. More and more complicated puzzles will stand in your way. Will the Final Room be the answer to why Livingstone asked for help?

Key Features:

  • An inverted escape room - the player will try to explore different chambers of an exceptional house. A tree in the middle of the kitchen or unnatural stacks of books create a surreal and eerie atmosphere of the mansion,
  • Puzzles which satisfy not only your brains - object manipulation creates a pleasant feel, known from interacting with beautiful things. The game’s interface simulates physical object movement and combined with the right sound effects, the game pleases all the senses,
  • Unique African atmosphere - despite being set in a house of an European explorer, the game is a great source of information about Africa and its culture. Objects and notes are like a museum of various artifacts from that continent.

Dr Livingstone, I Presume? will be available for PC (Steam) on May 20th at 14,99 USD, with a 10% launch week discount in addition to a free artbook and soundtrack. After the discount ends these items will be sold separately.
